Enjoyable story reminding one not to overlook what appears to be the 'commonplace.' The narration was excellent.

This is an excellent short story interwoven with lessons of character and humility. It also serves as a bit of a history lesson on the senior societies and traditions of Yale. Roger Melin does an excellent job reading this solo project for libribox.
